    Answer:

    n=28,m=6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Rearrange to give 4704 = m * n^2

    Express 4704 in its prime factorisation:

    2^5 * 3^1 * 7^2

    We know that n must be as large as possible and, because it is squared, be the even numbers.

    We get n^2 = 2^4 * 7^2 so n = 2^2*7 = 28

    m is the leftovers

    2^1*3 = 6
